Does anyone know where one can find %26quot;vintage%26quot; cookbooks in Paris? It can be in French, English, whatever. From the 50s would be great, pre-war even better, but I%26#39;m open to any year. Thanks.

One of the best gastronomy dealers is Remi Flachard. His shop is at 9, rue de Bac. Most of the books are French, but you might find some in English. He also frequently has wonderful old menu cards and food adverts. You should also browse the bouquinistes along the Seine. And for English-language vintage books, try these used bookstores: Berkeley Books, 8 r Casimir Delavigne; San Francisco Books, 17 r Monsieur le Prince; the Abbey Bookshop, 29 r Parcheminerie. Berkeley and San Fran are in the 6th, the Abbey is in the 5th. You should also look in at Shakespeare %26amp; Co., just for the experience. I%26#39;ve never found anything in the cookbook line though (37 r Bûcherie 75005).
